Koala in the wild

Spotted on the Samford Range on my way back from Arana Hills. I had to stop rather quickly on a wet road so as to not hit him as he ran across the road.

Since I was stopped anyway, I pulled off onto the shoulder and snapped away.

The koala climbed the first available tree (shrub really) before deciding to move to a larger tree further away from the road a few seconds after I took this.
